Testimonials

"Fabrizia's yoga classes are so much more than getting into yoga poses, it's an actual journey of thoughtfully themed words, poetry and connection that align mind body and soul together in such a beautiful way. It leaves the lungs breathing so much more deeply and the body feeling stretched and revitalised without feeling overwhelmed, and leaves your heart open to the adventures of life to come. I highly recommend her." - Gilly

"I have been coming to Fabrizia's yoga class for a little over a year now, as the gentle, nurturing healing space she creates has ignited a profound shift in my yogic practice. The alchemical nature of her sessions is unlike anything I have experienced before! She is the living, breathing embodiment of her love of yoga and nature fused together with her passion for poetry. This then spills joyfully out into her visual descriptions of the asanas. I adore listening to these, as they transport me to a deep state of relaxation, thus deepening my connection to my practice. The experience of spending time in the magical Strawbale Studio when I finish my session with Fabrizia, leaves me walking on air for the rest of my day! What a treat to experience yoga in such a natural, beautiful space, I have found nothing else like it in Hertfordshire! It's sublime, I simply float home!!! What I love most about Fabrizia's classes is that Alexander Technique, Butoh Dance and Classical Indian Dance are often intuitively woven into the tapestry of her teaching and her wisdom and love of these modalities just shines through. It is such a gift to receive these. The loving way she holds and creates sacred space, enables the mind and body to melt together in a delicious union, so pure and so divine. She is quite frankly the best yoga teacher I have ever worked with, thank you so much Fabrizia!" - Laura Bacon

Experience and training

Fabrizia studied for the British Wheel of Yoga Foundation Certificate with Maarten Vermaase, which then led her to undertake teacher training at The Yoga For Health Foundation, Icklebury. At the same time she attended Kundalini classes with Bridget Lynton-Minor who inspired her to lead her own Kundalini classes, and Lyn Ragg who influenced her to teach Hatha and Iyengar Yoga.
